As a boy, Eliezer valued his faith but began to struggle once he was sent to Auschwitz as a teenager in 1944. One of the main themes is the struggle of faith. I have read Night several times since then and am reminded each time of its importance. I did not fully understand the power and life lessons of the work at twelve years old but I felt awe and knew it was special.
I was captivated from the very first page and read the entire book that evening.
I found it at my school library and the barbed wire and shadow of a boy on the cover immediately caught my attention.
I came across Night by Elie Wiesel while in middle school.
